While checking out some old episodes of RS-SK on YouTube - particularly how the Pradhyumna story is treated, looks like they went through a whole saga of events and came up w/ plenty of inventions of their own. For instance, this Banasura & Bhanumati characters seem to be from there. Of course, that serial made even more outrageous inventions, like showing Balarama defeated by Shambarasura in battle - contrary to the Ramanand worshippers on I-F, he wasn't averse to inventing things either. The Pradhyumna chapter seems to fall in the timeframe where Ramanand Sagar was still directing it.

At any rate, that track seemed to have been very long and drawn out, and given that SP is a bunch of illiterates who never read an original Krishna story, but are just copying whatever previous serials showed, this track is going to be several weeks long w/ god knows how much of mumbo jumbo.

The serial is now a complete saas-bahu show. In this, there is a girl named Lata and her blind parents, and she works for a family that her parents are indebted to. While the head of that family is virtuous, he is ineffective, and his wife & daughter are abusive towards Lata. He also has a younger brother & wife.

Now, the fat malkin's devrani has become jealous of her jewelry, and threatened to leave her husband unless he got her matching jewelry that day itself. So he stole it from her and gave it to his wife. Later, Lata was clearing the wardrobe, the daughter came in and started throwing things, called her mother and put the blame on Lata, and the stage is set for the theft to be discovered and Lata to be blamed as a thief.

Krishna & Jambavati are busy watching this saas-bahu soap, and like in the case of Paundrak, Krishna tells Jambavati that they have not filled up their pot of sins, and so Lata can't be permanently saved. In other words, the serial is signaling us to put up more of this crap. In the meantime, Krishna also tells her that he'd have to take another avatar which makes one wonder where is this story is headed.

It's obvious that they're not going to return to the Mahabharata, which is why it's high time they ended this. Just one thing I'm wondering - are they showing Dwarka as drenched in sin, the way it was b4 the fratricide? B'cos that involved Krishna's clansmen as well, but in this serial, since they lose everybody related to Krishna, will they be just showing a massacre of just the inhabitants of Dwarka b4 ending the show? No Samba, no Satyaki, no Kritavarma, no Vasudev or Arjun?

Now that this serial is over, one thing I'll say - Sagar Pictures deserves an award for managing to produce a Krishna serial that was so lackluster that it had consistently low TPRs (except for a few days when they showed the original, authentic Sudama track. In the process, Vishal, who in terms of profile, rivals Nitish and Swapnil, not to mention Sarvadaman and Megan, was simply wasted on stupid flute scenes, when his activities were all ways so much more, and very colorful and interesting.

Suggestion to all aspiring mytho actors - just avoid Sagars in general, and Sagar Pictures in particular!
